Are you the next king or queen of the decks to stand tall above all else? DJs need only apply if they possess the ability to whip up euphoria in an instance and are floor filling superstars who can bring warmth and personality to the table for each and every set they play.

The prize includes a residency at Manchester235, plus the chance to deliver their talent on one of the biggest stages of all – a guaranteed set at Mallorca’s world famous BCM nightclub. iFor – the nightlife events specialists -will also offer their considerable backing by signing the winner to an exclusive management deal aimed at priming them for global takeover.

With such a great prize in store for the winner, this isn’t a place for chin-stroking slaves of the underground. Instead the DJ of choice will be someone who commands the booth with an unrivalled understanding of commercially flavoured dance and hip shaking pop music.
